FWIW, there are quite some viruses that do this; A nice trick to avoid a virus sending itself in a message to everyone in your address-book is making an entry in your address-book like :
"!000000000 ANTI-VIRUS DON'T REMOVE" and don't give a valid email-address to it; just leave the email-field empty. Most viruses will not be able to send a message to that "address" and will "drop dead"; of course, you still have the virus yourself, but at least, you're not replicating it to the rest of the world.
